Sign in to your Collider account Fantasy is one of those genres that definitely takes time to grow due to its expansive worlds that are usually filled with magic, history, family conflict, mythology, ancient threats, and characters whose journeys are only just beginning during the first season. That is why the official confirmation of a renewal can feel especially exciting for the genre. Fantasy shows like House of the Dragon, which is set to push deeper into a brutal family war rife with politics, dragons, betrayal, and tragic consequences, and the anime Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, which is poised to continue a quiet, emotional fantasy journey about memory, time, grief, and the meaning of companionship, are two fantastical watches that are coming back with more seasons of imaginative storytelling and wonder. Compiled on this list are eight fantasy shows that are returning with new — and hopefully incredibly epic — seasons. 1 'The Librarians: The Next Chapter' (2025–Present) Image via TNT This show is the perfect kind of renewed fantasy series to jump into for those genre enthusiasts who are looking for something with adventure. The Librarians: The Next Chapter follows a time-traveling librarian, Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan), stranded in the present as he continues his adventures amid secrets, artifacts, and magical crises, whether he is ready to or not. The Librarians: The Next Chapter's second season officially premiered on August 2, 2026, bringing back a masterful mix of humor, adventure, and episodic mystery. While it is no surprise pickup, due to The Librarians: The Next Chapter’s initial multi-season commitment, it qualifies as the perfect guaranteed return that earns its place among fantasy TV's best. Standing as a sturdy comfort watch that is fun and charming rather than the Earth-shaking bout of fantastical happenings, this series is great because of its lighthearted adventures, lovable characters, and classic magical escapism, making its return easy to celebrate. 2 'Hazbin Hotel' (2019–Present) Image via Prime Video Hazbin Hotel is a beloved animated series on Prime Video that transforms Hell into a loud, colorful musical playground for chaos, redemption, and dark humor. The series centers around the optimistic Charlie Morningstar (Erika Henningsen), who is eager to rehabilitate sinners instead of letting Hell’s endless cycle of punishment and extermination continue. With its rather anarchic premise, Hazbin Hotel keeps coming back because it highlights one stubborn idea: maybe redemption is worth chasing despite countless hellish obstacles. The series has been renewed for both Season 3 and 4, lauded as one of the most addictive animated shows ever created. Hazbin Hotel makes sure everything within it matters, from song breaks and visuals to voice work. The iconic series is a fantastic watch that is as heartfelt as it is chaotic. 3 'Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End' (2023–Present) Image via Madhouse This remarkable anime fantasy series does what most don’t: begin its story after the fight with the big bad. Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End focuses on the elf mage Frieren (Atsumi Tanezaki), who survives alone after the heroic party’s great victory, as she travels with friends, revisiting places her old party once crossed, and slowly understanding what human time, affection, and grief really mean. Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End makes it easy to root for a new season as it proves that fantasy doesn’t have to be loud to be great. It’s a true gem that kept up its fantastic momentum with its second season, which premiered on January 16, 2026, and has since been officially renewed for a third season set to debut in late 2027. Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End's power comes from its reflective nature, a clear example of a fantasy hit that is just as captivating as any battle-centric series, making its return one of the genre's most exciting. Collider Exclusive · Game of Thrones Personality Quiz Which Game of Thrones House Do You Belong To? Stark · Lannister · Targaryen · Baratheon · Tyrell Five great houses. Five completely different answers to the same question: how do you hold power in a world that will take it from you the moment you stop paying attention? Eight questions will determine where your loyalties — and your nature — truly lie. 🐺Stark 🦁Lannister 🐉Targaryen 🦌Baratheon 🌹Tyrell FIND YOUR HOUSE → 01 Someone powerful is acting dishonourably and everyone knows it. What do you do? In Westeros, the answer to this question has ended more than one great house. ACall it out, openly and on the record. If honour means anything, it has to mean something when it's costly. BUse it. Information about someone else's dishonour is leverage — and leverage is power. CAct decisively to correct it — with or without the approval of those around me. DChallenge them directly. Strength settles disputes more honestly than courtroom manoeuvring. ENavigate carefully — build alliances, apply quiet pressure, and create a situation where the right outcome becomes inevitable. NEXT QUESTION → 02 What is the source of your power? Every house endures because of something. What is it for yours? AThe loyalty of people who trust me — earned over generations, not bought with gold. BWealth, intelligence, and the willingness to use both without sentiment. CA legacy so fearsome and a vision so total that opposition becomes unthinkable. DPhysical strength, military force, and the respect that comes from being the kind of person nobody wants to fight. ECharm, connection, and the ability to make powerful people feel that my success is also theirs. NEXT QUESTION → 03 Who do you truly fight for? Strip away the banners and the words. The honest answer tells you everything. AMy family and my people — those who depend on me and have kept faith with me through everything. BMy family — the ones who share my blood, even when they exhaust me, even when they disappoint me. CMy cause — a vision larger than any single person, including me. DMyself, and those few who've proven themselves worth fighting beside. EMy house — its name, its future, the position I intend to leave it in when I'm gone. NEXT QUESTION → 04 How do you deal with your enemies? A house's method reveals its character as clearly as its words ever could. AHonestly — I face them directly, and I give quarter when it's warranted. BThoroughly — I don't leave loose ends, and I don't make the same enemy twice. CDecisively — fire answers questions that diplomacy only delays. DHead-on — I'd rather meet a threat on the battlefield than behind closed doors. EElegantly — I prefer to make former enemies into allies, or at least into people who owe me something. NEXT QUESTION → 05 What kind of ruler do you believe in? Westeros is full of answers to this question. Most of them end badly. AA just one — someone who serves the realm rather than using it, who leads by example rather than fear. BA capable one — someone smart enough to navigate the game, ruthless enough to win it, and realistic about what winning costs. CA transformative one — someone who doesn't just rule what exists but reshapes what's possible. DA strong one — someone whose authority is beyond question because the alternative is obviously worse. EA wise one — someone who understands that the realm is fed by more than armies, and that a full stomach keeps more peace than a sharp sword. NEXT QUESTION → 06 You suffer a devastating loss. How does your house respond? How a house handles defeat tells you more about it than how it handles victory. AWe grieve, properly and together — and then we endure, because endurance is what we do. BWe adapt. We reassess. And we ensure that whoever caused this loss comes to regret it completely. CWe burn hotter. Setbacks don't soften us — they clarify what needs to happen next. DWe hit back. Grief and revenge are the same motion in our house. EWe regroup quietly, rebuild our position, and return when we're ready — on our terms, not theirs. NEXT QUESTION → 07 Which of these truths about Westeros do you most believe? Every house has a philosophy. This is yours. AThe lone wolf dies, but the pack survives. Nothing matters more than the people you protect. BA Lannister always pays their debts — in gold or in kind. Reputation is built on consistency. CI am the blood of the dragon. Some destinies are written before the person who carries them is born. DOurs is the fury. When we move, we move completely — and we don't stop until it's done. EGrowing strong means knowing when to bloom and when to wait. Patience is its own kind of power. NEXT QUESTION → 08 The Iron Throne is within reach. What do you do? The answer reveals not just your ambition — but your character. AClaim it only if the realm needs me to — and rule in a way that makes it worth having. BEnsure someone who owes us sits in it. The power behind the throne is safer than the throne itself. CTake it. It was always meant to be mine — I feel that in my bones and in my blood. DSeize it — with both hands, without hesitation. Opportunity in Westeros does not wait to be asked. EPosition my house to be indispensable to whoever sits there — influence outlasts any single reign. REVEAL MY HOUSE → The Maester Has Spoken Your House Is…Your answers point to the great house whose words, values, and way of surviving in Westeros match your own. Bend the knee — or don't. That's very much up to you. 🐺 House StarkWinter is Coming — and you have always known it. You prepare not out of fear but out of duty, because the people who depend on you deserve someone who takes the long view. You lead with honour even when it costs you, because you understand that a reputation built on integrity is the only one worth having. Your loyalty to family and people runs deep — not as sentiment but as a code that doesn't bend when things get difficult. The North endures because Starks endure — not by being the cleverest players in the game, but by being the kind of people others are willing to follow into the cold. You are that kind of person. The pack survives. The lone wolf dies. You already know which one you are. 🦁 House LannisterYou understand the game — its rules, its exceptions, and exactly when the rules become the exception. You play it without illusions and without apology. You are sharper than most people realise, and you have learned to use that gap to your advantage. A Lannister always pays their debts — and you always keep your word, because your word is an instrument of power, and instruments must be kept in working order. You love your family with a ferocity that sometimes blinds you, and you know it, and you do it anyway. The lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep. Neither, in the end, do you. 🐉 House TargaryenYou carry a sense of destiny that is difficult to explain and impossible to ignore — the feeling that you are not simply participating in the world but meant to reshape it. You are capable of extraordinary things, and you know it, and that knowledge is both your greatest strength and your most dangerous quality. Fire and blood are not just words to you — they are a philosophy about what change requires and what it costs. The Targaryens at their best were transformative rulers who broke chains and defied the limits of what anyone thought possible. At your best, so are you. The dragon has three heads. You are one of them. 🦌 House BaratheonYou are a force — direct, powerful, and difficult to ignore when you enter a room or a conflict. You do not negotiate with challenges. You meet them. Ours is the fury — and yours is a kind of intensity that commands attention, respect, and occasionally fear from those who underestimate what's behind it. You value strength and straight dealing. You'd rather know where you stand in a fight than navigate a web of courtly whispers. The Baratheons built their house on the back of one of the greatest military victories in Westerosi history — and then struggled with what came after. The lesson of your house is that winning is not the end of the story. Governing is. You are learning that too. 🌹 House TyrellYou understand that power does not always announce itself — that sometimes it arrives with flowers, good wine, and a smile that doesn't quite reach the eyes. Growing strong is your house's motto, and you live it: patiently, strategically, always investing in the relationships and resources that will matter most when it counts. You are charming by choice and calculating by nature — a combination that makes you one of the most effective players in any room you enter. The Tyrells fed King's Landing and shaped its politics without ever sitting on the Iron Throne — and they were arguably more powerful for it. You know that the person who controls the food controls the kingdom. And you always know where the food is. ↻ RETAKE THE QUIZ 4 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians' (2023–Present) Image via Disney+ Percy Jackson and the Olympians' return is incredibly exciting for fans since the series’ story is designed to grow with Percy, transforming every epic adventure into another step toward the character’s brilliant evolution. The young-adult fantasy centers around Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell), a boy who discovers he’s the son of Poseidon, an actual demigod, and is haphazardly thrown into the world of Greek mythology. Percy Jackson and the Olympians isn’t some one-book novelty series, but a franchise with a spine, something made exceptionally clear with Disney’s renewal for season 3. The series’ third season is set to come later this year, sparking anticipation for a story rife with warmth, humor, and captivating mythology. Percy Jackson and the Olympians is a quality adaptation that has become one of the few family-friendly fantasy shows that feels genuinely made for all viewers, marking it as one of the most important fantasy series to make its return. 5 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' (2022–Present) Image via Prime Video This ambitious fantasy show is coming back with new seasons, continuing its epic journey through Middle-earth with deeper lore, bigger battles, and higher stakes. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power tells the tale of the long tragedy that leads toward Sauron’s rise and the forging of the Rings. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is treated as a true flagship and not some kind of experiment. Prime Video is bringing the series back because the fantastic story is still moving toward some of the most important events happening within Middle-earth. The series’ third season is coming in hot on November 11, 2026, with more expected to come as part of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’s larger long-term plan. Even among most fantasies, this one is one of the most memorable standouts that masterfully delivers exactly what big-screen Tolkien television should. 6 'Moving' (2023–Present) Image via Hulu Moving is one of the most underrated beauties on this list, but thankfully, the show is well-loved enough that it is returning, with more seasons expected. The superhero-esque show follows teens Jang Hui-soo (Go Youn-jung), Lee Gang-hoon (Kim Do-hoon), and Kim Bong-seok (Lee Jung-ha) as they attempt to live ordinary lives while hiding their superhuman abilities. Moving is a quality watch, and with its second season finally confirmed, fans devoted to the fantasy series are filled with anticipation. The show stands strong as one of the best international dramas in the genre, a deeply emotional, unexpectedly tender, and sharply structured watch. Moving’s renewal is definitely justified since the show masterfully turns superpowers back into something truly raw and human. 7 'House of the Dragon' (2022–Present) Image via HBO This epic prequel to the iconic fantasy series Game of Thrones stands as an important renewed series since it's set to expand on the brilliant saga. House of the Dragon, set roughly 200 years before its beloved predecessor, centers around Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy), who is raised to believe the Iron Throne is hers by right, while others make a bid for her seat, becoming the center of a rival claim. House of the Dragon is a giant-franchise fantasy show that also feels like a genuinely prestigious drama. Even with its captivatingly massive spectacle, the show’s real engine is its character psychology, ranging from wounded pride and vengeance to inheritance and the poisoned intimacy of family politics. Its third season renewal dates back to 2024 and premiered in June 2026. HBO has also confirmed the series' fourth and final season, likely premiering in 2028, ensuring House of the Dragon has a clear and satisfying conclusion that viewers will love. 8 'Black Clover' (2017–Present) Image via Netflix Black Clover is a beloved fantasy anime that had most fans worried they may never see another season, but thankfully that is not the case. The show follows two orphan boys, Asta (Gakuto Kajiwara) and Yuno (Nobunaga Shimazaki), as they grow up with the same seemingly impossible dream: to become the Wizard King. In a twist of fate, Asta discovers he has no magic at all, while his childhood rival is brimming with untapped power. The new season of Black Clover is set to begin in October 2026, which finally ends a very long and agonizing wait for the series' return. It’s a standout anime series that is beloved for its earnest fantasy redemption story, powered by escalating myth, teamwork, and pure velocity. Everything about Black Clover is epic, and since news of its return has reached fans, anticipation for the series’ next chapter has only continued to rapidly increase. Black Clover Release Date 2017 - 2021 Network TV Tokyo, TV Osaka, TV Aichi, TVh, TVQ, TSC Cast Gakuto Kajiwara Asta (voice) Nobunaga Shimazaki Yuno (voice)
